Ravi-Piaggio Storm-125 Euro II bike

[Silver_Knife]

Salam all Ravi-Piaggio bikers, my bike is now 2 year old n doing good, but i got a sudden problem yesterday, bike suddunly started to blow black smoke with missing, took my bike to a street machanic and cleaned up plug. Plug is total new replaced last week, but now its head was very blackish. After cleaning black smoke almost vanished but still very litle is coming. Any Help
according to that machanic its due to patrol over flow

Asjdsm or vickytulla might be helpfull in this regard as i particularly have no such experience on this. But if your bike is consuming extra petrol then this can verified by the condition of plug

Black = Extra Fuel

Brownish Black = Appropriate

if cleaning/changing has improved the smoke (i.e now smoke is reduced ) then t could very well be the problem of rich or over rich mixture.. it happens when their is more petrol mixed with air by carburettor so when the sparkplug fires the mixture a lot of unburned particles just emits.. the solution could b to clean and readjust carb.. but do it from some knowledgeable man.. kisi aisa banday ka hathay na char jana jo is pa seekh jaya..

have u checked ure engine oil is it wht it shpould be ? kam tho nahi hova?
ua bhoth pathla tho nahi hova?
jalna ki bo tho nahi a rahi..

hopefully (?) its carbs adjutment issue..

If it really is black then now worries ! get the feul reduced a little and smoke will dissappear, carb setting is very sensitive thing I dont get my carb open very often, only got it cleaned5/6 times in my total experience with this bike, even this count is high according to me ....

Pakistan men carburetor ki setting ky magicians rahty hain go to some Good reputed mechnic who is in touch with racers wheelers they have very good in hand experince.

Do get the compression checked as well, may be your bike rings are getting lose (if rings are depricating mostly smoke color is not black so dont worry but still get it checked)...

Tulla: Have you got kick or still searching for a good one

@ silver-knife, viktulla and asdjsm Thanx for your help, Smoke was real black, not that of weak rings or that of mobil oil. 2ndly spark plug was black not brown so it was clear that it was due to bad air-feul mixture. Will take my bike to ravi-piaggio machanic at rawalpindi today. once again thanx for your help:)

[vickytulla]

I realized I don't need it any more, bike came out to be reliable in this context, at least for me.

what I think that they added kick becuase they new Pakistanis are not in habbit of maintaining bike and keeping batterries alive, so starter alone will not do the Job so they added a kick, but for a person like me who doesnt messes up his bike, self Starter is more then enough.

@Vicky
Have you faced any issues with self starter
i mean your biker is model 2009, Bro Is it still just one push start
Yaa Dhaka waghera dena parhta hai

[vickytulla]

hehehheheheh ..... its a half self start in Summer and in winter some times it takes a two selfs to start, and in extreme cold like Dec, January some time I need to chowk as well other then that never bothered.

Yes once I got it washed and service station, and water went in carb some how, that day I selfed it like a 20 to 30+ times until I drained carb all from the drain house below and then selfed it and bike started...

As I said it came out relaible for me.

Since 2009 its working fine
you can't ask for more reliability

[Silver_Knife]

Iam so addicted to self start. That in rare cases when i have to kick.. I got so annoyed

[amjad635]

No doubt Self Start is great feature to have in bike

[vickytulla]

I think I am not sure GS 125 which was previously introduced along 150 also had self or not ? I don't remember properly...

I guess you are on mission to prove the reliability of Ravi Piaggio lolxx.. I guess only me and you are abusing our bikes to see what it is made of

[vickytulla]

frankly I dont have to really test it, My useage is already harsh enough! (keeping in mind that previously I blewed my 2010 125 in 6 months because of rash useage) in start I abused paigo a lot too, but now as it is becoming old I am becoming gentle with her too.. lolzz Now I hardly over speed, infact in lahore there are few places to even "speed"

[Silver_Knife]

Hmm.. I have this crazzy idea of wrapping the whole bike in carbon fiber. What you say?

Ravi Piaggio dedicated website is hacked by someone, just visited to get the service center number.

[Silver_Knife]

Thats great idea. Here is one piaggio owner which has done something ridiculous with the visor. May be you get some inspiration from this pic:P

What was that suppose to mean? Quoting my post ? What exactly are you trying to show?
